A MCP server that returns the latest stable versions of packages you use as dependencies in a variety of ecosystems, such as Python, NPM, Go, or GitHub Actions.
It also supports looking up the latest versions of almost 1000 tools, such as development runtimes like python, node, dotnet, development tools like , and various like or , via the tool.
Returns the latest package / dependency / tool versions for Python, NPM, Go, Docker, Helm, etc.
gradlekubectlterraformWhenever an AI coding agents generates files that pin dependency versions, they insert outdated versions because their training happened weeks or months ago, and new dependency versions have been released since then. As a developer, it is annoying having to manually fix these outdated versions.
This MCP fixes this problem. Use it together with an MCP such as Context7 to avoid that your AI agent produces outdated code.
Supported ecosystems / tools:
kubectl, terraform, gradle, maven, etc. supported by mise-en-placeThere are three ways to make this MCP available to your AI coding agent:
Point your agent to the free hosted service:
https://package-version-check-mcp.onrender.com/mcp
in (streamable) HTTP mode.
This is the quickest way to get started. Note that the hosted service may have rate limits from the underlying package registries.
Use uvx to run the MCP server locally:
uvx package-version-check-mcp --mode=stdio
This automatically installs and runs the latest version from PyPI.
Requirements:
mise binary on PATH if you want to call the tools get_supported_tools or get_latest_tool_versionsOptional but recommended: Set the GITHUB_PAT environment variable to a GitHub Personal Access Token (no scopes required) to avoid GitHub API rate limits.
Use the pre-built Docker image:
docker run --pull=always --rm -i ghcr.io/mshekow/package-version-check-mcp:latest --mode=stdio
Optional but recommended: Pass the GITHUB_PAT environment variable using -e GITHUB_PAT=your_token_here to avoid GitHub API rate limits.
To improve performance and reduce API calls to package registries, you can enable caching:
PACKAGE_VERSION_CACHE_ENABLED: Set to true to enable caching (disabled by default)PACKAGE_VERSION_CACHE_TTL_SECONDS: Cache duration in seconds (default: 3600 / 1 hour)PACKAGE_VERSION_CACHE_MAX_SIZE_MB: Maximum cache size in MB (default: 64)The cache is an in-memory TTL (Time-To-Live) cache. It resets when the MCP server restarts.
Once you've added the MCP server, you need to:
Enable the MCP tools in your agent's configuration. The available tools are documented below
Nudge the agent to use the MCP in your prompts. Most LLMs don't automatically invoke this MCP's tools without explicit guidance. Include instructions like:
In case you forgot to add this prompt and your agent generated code with outdated versions, you can just ask your agent to update the versions afterwards (e.g., "Update the dependencies you just added to the latest version via MCP").
get_latest_package_versionsFetches the latest versions of packages from various ecosystems.

For Docker, this is the manifest digest (sha256).published_on: (optional) Publication date if available (not available for Docker)lookup_errors: Array of errors with:

Output:
get_latest_tool_versionsFetches the latest stable versions of development and DevOps tools supported by mise-en-place.
This tool is for tools that are NOT part of language ecosystems like PyPI or NPM. For language ecosystem packages (including Terraform providers and modules), use get_latest_package_versions instead.

The MCP server depends on the mise-en-place package for looking up tool versions. See https://mise.jdx.dev/installing-mise.html for installation instructions.
If you're developing or testing the MCP server locally, you can run it directly.
First, follow the Package management with Poetry -> Setup instructions to configure your virtual environments.
Next:
.poetry/bin/poetry run python -m package_version_check_mcp.main
Or if you have the .venv activated:
python src/package_version_check_mcp/main.py
On a new machine, create a venv for Poetry (in path <project-root>/.poetry), and one for the project itself (in path <project-root>/.venv), e.g. via C:\Users\USER\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\python.exe -m venv <path>.
This separation is necessary to avoid dependency conflicts between the project and Poetry.
Using the pip of the Poetry venv, install Poetry via pip install -r requirements-poetry.txt
Then, run poetry sync --all-extras, but make sure that either no venv is active, or the .venv one, but not the .poetry one (otherwise Poetry would stupidly install the dependencies into that one, unless you previously ran poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true). The --all-extras flag is required to install development dependencies, such as pytest.
pyproject.toml and poetry.lock file, run poetry sync --all-extras to update your local environment. This removes any obsolete dependencies from your .venv venv.pyproject.toml, run poetry update && poetry sync --all-extras to update the lock file and install the updated dependencies including extras.pyproject.toml the same), run poetry update && poetry sync --all-extras, which updates the lock file and installs the updates into the active venv.Make sure that either no venv is active (or the .venv venv is active) while running any of the above poetry commands.
Returns the latest package / dependency / tool versions for Python, NPM, Go, Docker, Helm, etc.
